- Going further it is time to analyze the setting of the story. The story begins from the episode where we meet the main character – Trysdale. The action appears in the real present time. From the first phrase we can easily imagine the situation and the atmosphere around him. The author gives the direct description and many prompts to help us to deepen in the story. Firstly, we can see the place and the occasion of the action occurred: “…Trysdale standing by a table in his bachelor apartments…” it is a clear hint that the main character is single and lives alone. “Trysdale's friend, the brother of the bride, stood at a sideboard complaining at being allowed to drink alone. Both men were in evening dress.” Here I guess becomes obvious that they are joining some wedding, but both stand aloof. They are both in a downcast, each has his own reason. The author describes the atmosphere in the room as a dark and negative, for example: “gloom of the apartment”. Except present time, the author used such techniques as flashback and foreshadowing. After presenting the main character and the place the story takes place we turn back to the events that happened before. Also I can easily judge what was the end of that story, because the young man is sad and unhappy in present.
